As the UK heads into another heatwave, Thames Water has confirmed it expects to impose a hosepipe in the "coming weeks", becoming the fourth company to do so following Southern, South East and Welsh Water. Although it can not yet confirm the timing due to operational and legal requirements, the company said it will update customers as soon as possible and in the meantime urged them to limit their water use to essential needs.
